November 2, 13:00

Parties of the National Assembly of the sixth convocation have separate provisions and recommendations regarding the country's security issues in their electoral programs. Recent changes in the Armed Forces, which are considered as the most important component of security, have received a great response among the public. The draft law “On Military Duty and Military Service” and “On Defense” submitted by the ruling party was severely criticized by the parliamentary oppositional “Yelq” faction. In his turn, Armenian Defense Minister Vigen Sargsyan blamed “Yelq” for having destructive approaches.
